We continue our tour of Europe WW2 sites, visiting the southern Bavarian town of Berchtesgaden and the Eagles Nest, or Kehlsteinhaus.
The Eagles nest of was one of the last places liberated by the allies in World War Two, marking the end of World War 2 in Europe.
The HBO Series Band of Brothers made an episode about this part of the war, and as Kelly's dad is a huge BOB fan and WW2 history buff, We had to go and check it out.
Be sure to check out the rest of our videos from our World War 2 road trip

Going to Kehlsteinhaus, Eagles Nest is spectacular and it has wonderful vibes and so does the ruins of the Berghoff. It’s history and one can’t hate all Germans because of the war. The view from up there on a sunny day is spectacular. 😊

@TheAwkwardTourists 6 ай бұрын

It's definitely spectacular and we love Germany and Germans! But we also can't forget the evil that some of the past men perpetuated and we were just getting done of those vibes. But still amazing!

Nice. Would have liked to see the lift though. Also, Hitler hated the Eagle's Nest. He hardly ever used it because he said that the thin air affected him. He preferred to stay below at the Berghof.

What an honor to experience that place, and yes you are 100% correct, there was an enormous amount of PURE EVIL that was there at one time. Nazis love to hide in places that most don't have access too. Thank you for sharing this! God Bless you and yours! ❤🙏
